Advanced visibility control - layers?

[Michael Moser]

I am seeking a possibility to switch different parts of a graphic picture
visible depending on some "switch".

Ideally I would like to have a few "checkboxes" in one of the corners of my
slide and - depending on whether the user checks them on/off - certain
elements of the drawing are visible or hidden.

Is something like that doable with PPT (v2002/XP)?

Note: the point is NOT to make things appear one after the other (that I
know I could do using animations), the point is to allow the user to see
different combinations of things being visible (or not). Like combining 3
(or more) slides or layers on top of each other in arbitrary combination.

Hope I could make myself clear...
Michael

Assuming you mean in show mode you can use triggers

There is also a simple example
